Hard boiled eggs
This is probably a very silly question, but I'm genuinely curious so bare with me guys! When you are logging a hard boiled egg what is your preferred method? I know a large egg is about 70 calories give or take, so do you just usually weigh the egg after it's hard boiled without the shell on or just guesstimate and leave…

Fitbit extra calories
I know this has been asked before and I did look at those threads but I'm still a bit confused. Are Fitbit extra calories pretty accurate? I've walked around 7,500 steps today so far and I've gotten 75 extra calories back. I average from 4,000-13,000 steps a day depending if I work (walk more on work days- 3 days a week)…

Roasted butternut squash. YUM
This isn't a recipe but I just want to rave about butternut squash here! It's so cheap this time of year so I've been picking some up every time I'm at the store and it's so delicious and surprisingly easy to prepare. I just cut it, peel it, slice it into cubes, and toss it in some olive oil and Thyme (or whatever herbs…

Probiotics
There are so many probiotic options out there. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions or advice on a brand to use? I'm doing my research but would like to get some feedback on here as well. I want to make sure I'm getting one that is effective and worth the cost!

Fitness blender
I've recently discovered fitness blender videos and I'm obsessed to say the least! However, how do you go about logging the workouts you've completed? I'm curious to see who else uses these videos and how they log their workouts into MFP!

Health/fitness apps
Are there any other apps you guys love that you use on your health/fitness journeys? I currently use MFP, map my walk, and of course my Fitbit but I wanted to see what else is out there that might be beneficial and helpful!

Spaghetti squash
I eat spaghetti squash fairly often but I'm having a hard time determining the calories in a serving. I feel like MFP is all over the place and when I google it I'm not coming up with anything consistent. Could someone help me out here? (I weigh my food and I understand no one will be able to give me an exact calorie…

Fairly new to strength training
I was a dancer for 18 years (started when I was 2 ended when I was 20). I'm now 22 and I've noticed a significant change in my muscle mass. I never realized how toned dancing actually made me and because of that I never really felt the need to strength train. I weigh 148lbs at 5'5, which isn't my goal weight but I believe…

Back at it again!
Hi all! I'm not new to MFP at all (I've been on since 2013), however, I'm the queen of on again off again use of this app. I'm 22 & just graduated from undergrad where I unfortunately gained a ton of weight and was consistently feeling bad about myself. I've already lost about 20lbs and I'm down to 150lbs (I'm 5'5) but I'm…
